API Discussion

Does a quest have a previous/next attribute for when it is in a ‘chain’?
Running into a situation that one party member is ineligible to pick up a quest because they missed a previous quest. I wanted to look into that through the API if possible.

Hi Silloh,

You can use the quest API to retrieve a quest by ID, and then lookup the other quests in the chain by accessing the data for the quests “category”.

https://us.api.blizzard.com/data/wow/quest/57220?namespace=static-us&locale=en_US&access_token=TOKEN

Leads to:

https://us.api.blizzard.com/data/wow/quest/category/584?namespace=static-us&locale=en_US&access_token=TOKEN

I hope this helps.

It was brought to my attention that the list of quests in the Quest Category document may not be sufficient for this use-case as the order/index may not be guaranteed to represent ordering of quests in the chain. If you find that this document does not meet you use-case please do let us know so that we can consider alternatives for future updates.

Thanks.
